CBRE has announced the opening of its new 21,485-sq.-ft. technology-enabled office on the 8th floor of 2000 Avenue of the Stars at the Century Park complex.

The new office is part of CBRE’s Workplace360 program highlighting the company’s “Future of Work” space standards, including innovative technology and a wider variety of collaborative spaces designed to support hybrid working.

Since launching its Workplace360 program in 2013 in Downtown Los Angeles, CBRE has opened over 100 offices globally featuring a "free address" model with no assigned seating. This approach enhances collaboration and space efficiency, accommodating the flexible office attendance of hybrid work models.

"Technology is the cornerstone of CBRE's industry-leading standard for the high-performance workplace," said Andrew Ratner, Executive Managing Director of CBRE's West Los Angeles office. "High-tech features such as enhanced video conferencing, which enables real-time, in-person and remote collaboration, allow us to work more efficiently, thus elevating the service we deliver to our clients."

The integration of innovative technology throughout the office supports hybrid collaboration and delivers seamless digital experiences. The conference space features an interactive whiteboard capable of simultaneous in-person and remote use. The office also has multiple digital displays, including a 135-inch DvLED media display, which help facilitate office and client events. Other technology elements include screen sharing and touchscreen functionality for interactive presentations.

The office offers different work environments, including bench workstations, focus pods and focus rooms, to cater to neurodiversity and a range of personal work styles. The collaboration-geared areas feature open and enclosed rooms in all sizes and furniture layouts, as well as a large community space called “The Heart” with retractable walls for maximum flexibility.

A unique feature of the West Los Angeles office is “The Green Room,” which provides a curated experience for independent work, relaxation, or client events in a space inspired by the neighboring film lots and Hollywood's golden era.

"Over the last decade, CBRE has perfected the creation of compelling office environments that attract employees and clients," said Peter Van Emburgh, global head of CBRE’s corporate real estate. “The West Los Angeles office serves as a practical example of how companies can adopt a similar approach to cater to the evolving workforce needs and enhance company culture by providing a unique in-office experience.”

The office design, led by the CBRE Design Collective, is inspired by L.A.'s rich history and scenic landscapes. Artwork throughout the office, curated by NowArt, pays homage to the area’s beloved public art installations. Clean lines of the space emulate the city’s iconic architecture, while the soothing hues of the Pacific Ocean and earthy palettes of the surrounding mountains contribute to a workspace that fosters calm, productivity, and an appreciation of L.A.’s cultural and natural heritage.
